Can you name popular women who are Recording Engineers? or Producers?
Female Engineers and Producers are a rare commodity within the industry. I wonder why.





Sylvia Massy has established herself as a very credible producer/recording engineer.





Having produced the band Tool in the 90's, Massy went on to work with veteran producer Rick Rubin whom she would engineer and mix several projects for including Johnny Cash, The Red Hot Chili Peppers, Sevendust, and Powerman 5000, Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers, Slayer, Donovan Leitch and System Of A Down.





The list of other artists she has either produced or engineered is quite impressive.

Smashing Pumpkins


R.E.M.

Reply:No but I don't know any men doing that either. That must be a very tiny group within the general population. Today the future seems to be in construction work on bridges and highways. Just need a shovel to make a career in this field.
